DH predicted that result too - sigh. I lost 5 bucks

We have a 'custom computerized gizmo' that he set up for us - I can
access it thru my browser and just type in stuff when I remember, or run
out of something. I can also delete/edit items when necessary Even
have "buttons" on there that I can click on to add common stuff like
milk, bread, etc. Then I print it out before going shopping (most times)
